[John Gibson]

There is quite a nice 34 3 window coupe on Bring a Trailer at the moment. Older Dearborn car, located in Arizona. As of this morning the high bid was $37,500 and the auction is over tomorrow.

It will probably double that price in the last hour or so . . . will be interesting to see:

Something is up with the VIN number ,like a digit missing.

A real nice '33 or '34 Vineyard green roadster sold very reasonably a couple years ago on BAT. I figured it was going to go high also and regretted not following but I wished I would have tried.

I wonder if it met the reserve. I would think not. We will see. If it did not or if it did not, it is surely a sign of the future.

The reserve had been taken off.

Boxcar Tom, can you educate us on the added percentage you indicated? I thought BAT had a 5% buyer’s premium, so wanting to know what the 6.632% entails. Thx

Taking bets that car ends up with an SBC in the next year or so.

Last time I bought on BAT it was 5%.

I'll bet the owner lost money on that build, then only drove it 2k miles in nearly 20 years!

Whether it's right or wrong, if the car had more of hot rod vs. stock-type build, I believe the money would have been quite a bit more. Not many people are looking for totally stock Fords in the current market.

Tastefully done hot rods will still bring money; especially if they are traditional builds with hopped up flatheads or with other vintage speed parts/engines.

Possibly, but he/she had the joy of looking at it anytime they wanted to view the most beautiful car ever produced. IMHO. I would love to have one to sit in and dream. One that dripped a bit and had an old car smell. I wish someone would put me outta my misery lusting for one. (That I could afford) LOL

Ya, and probably a chopped top too! "Ain't that a shame, my tears fell like rain"
